A brief throwaway movie line that I think about all the time in Congress and the U.S. government, delivered by Captain Kirk in Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan- “You have to learn why things work on a Starship.”

The power is with the people, and the people of Mississippi are with Scott.
@scott_colom makes history today as the first Black senator elected in Mississippi since Reconstruction. I saw firsthand when campaigning with him in his hometown that he is a brilliant leader and dedicated public servant who will work tirelessly to serve every Mississippian with pride.
Congratulations, Scott.

CONFIRMED: Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS) called Democrat Scott Colom to concede.
@scrippsnews is told by a Colom spokesperson that during the call the now-Senator-Elect told Sen. Hyde-Smith: “God bless you, thank you Senator”

I took this photo oh my god 😭
We may have had to count One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, but Blue Mississippi sure has a nice ring to it! Scott, you put your heart and soul into this race because you believe in the promise of your state’s people. And they believed in you right back. I’m honored to have stood alongside you. Congratulations!

Just sent to me: Folks at the Mississippi NAACP office watching @CNN project @ScottColom’s Senate win. We referenced Medgar Evers in our coverage and that’s the office where Evers worked — bullet holes in the windows from that era remain.

I can’t stop the tears right now.
Mississippi. Mississippi.
It is breathtaking.

One of my favorite shots I grabbed of @scott_colom on the campaign trail came from Ruleville, MS, home of Fannie Lou Hamer.

I’ve filmed Super Bowls. I’ve filmed Rose Bowls. I’ve had the privilege of capturing some incredible moments. But helping Mississippi turn blue will be the most meaningful work I may ever do. Some things are bigger than the camera. #ScottColom #MississippiMatters

Could not be more proud to be part of Team Colom. Congrats, Senator-elect @scott_colom!

THIS is what this campaign has always been about. While so many people are focused on dividing and distracting us from what really matters, Scott has always believed in bringing people together and finding common ground. He is a leader and will make a great Senator.
I walked the Trump rally line to listen, not make assumptions. I talked with voters, asked questions and heard what matters to them.
When I'm elected, I'll represent all 82 counties and every Mississippian, no matter who they voted for. That's what being your senator means. #MississippiMatters
